Whether you're taking a train, plane or private jet, the most obvious outfit ideas when it comes to travelling has got to be a plain old tracksuit, right? Yes and no. Maya Jama, the very well-travelled host of Love Island, wore one to touch down in South Africa. But, styled with a lime green baby tee and some slimline black shades, the result was incredibly polished, striking the perfect balance between comfortable and cool. That's the thing about travel outfits. They require something slightly different from a casual outfit of, say, jeans and a T-shirt. That's fine if you're having dinner with friends but less fine if you're wedged in an economy seat for nine hours. No, what you need is the dreaded 'l' word: loungewear. If you think this means sloppy, think again people, because, done right, loungewear looks anything but. Don't believe me? Keep scrolling.

The Onesie

Kim Kardashian's version of athleisure is a scoop-neck onesie from SKIMS. Duh. Styled with trainers and a grey marl zip-up, our only concern is that your legs might catch a chill if it's a night flight. Her private jet is probably stocked with blankets so consider packing your own or an extra pair of sweatpants the next time you're flying. Travel outfits = sorted.

A Baby Tee

Maya Jama's cute tracksuit and baby tee combo is a great option if you're heading out shortly after arriving at the airport. Swap the hoodie for a blazer, the sweatpants for jeans and you're good to go. (The sunglasses can stay put.)

Ballet Pumps

Even if you're travelling first-class, your feet can still swell up. It's a fact. So instead of wearing a constrictive pair of shoes that you'll struggle to put back on, why not try a soft pair of ballet pumps? Not only are they making a huge resurgence thanks to balletcore, but they'll be much more forgiving than loafers, court heels (shudder) and even trainers.

The Holdall

Kylie Jenner might take a glam approach to air travel - I think those might be thigh-high cargo boots - but she's still a practical girl at heart. That bedazzled holdall is the perfect size for a long weekend, no?

The Trainers

Didi Stone's bright white trainers were the perfect finishing touch to her tracksuit two-piece. Apart from sliders, I can't think of a more comfortable shoe to wear when you're feet might swell ever-so-slightly.

The Shirt Dress

When Andie MacDowell touched down at Nice Airport, she looked like she was heading straight to a lunch meeting on La Croisette. If you're travelling for work, a non-crease shirt dress is a safe bet. Look for knitted options that won't get rumpled (even if you're sat in economy).
